The prompt for this drabble was "Reese and Carter hold hands for the first time in public"


OhMyGod, He's holding my hand!

Joss tried to remain calm and not freak out when John had casually took her hand in his as they walked down the street towards their favorite diner.

Don't make a big deal about this Joss, or he'll never hold your hand in public again.

John had been shy about expressing his affection for her in public. He was gentle and loving in private, but there hadn't been any public displays of affection. Until now.

Why now?

They had just saved a little girl from certain death. John must be feeling pretty good right now.

Does it matter?...No, it doesn't

Joss decided to relax and simply enjoy the fact that their relationship had taken a big step forward. She squeezed his hand and smiled up at him. He smiled back at her and they walked on in quiet compatibility.
